Lindy's Heart Block

This was the second of the two blocks (the other was Gerry H's spider block) that I set about to move color as a primary goal.. The red triangle was isolated down in the corner and I wanted to incorporate more true red.. I added a red silkie, red hearts and red seams. I also shortened the blue and pink trim that divided the block diagonally which freed up a seam for red and a nice area for a focal red heart. I moved the little heart with the cross down to the lower right corner where it really shows up a lot better. Of course I have to be last on a block to make these kind of changes..
